Cool bumper stickers by the way too...

The final colour balance is pretty cool huh...? Not sure I could describe teh steps in an orderly fashon taht would make sense, suffice to say a lot of blending went on (like a good Scotch blend) - It was a spaghetti Bolognese recipe in PSCS3+

..I process like I cook, as long as the flavour ends up nice the route there is almost black magic at times
Hopefully the "fast" scope connection and the fact that she was made in England will make sense of naming her
McLaren Scope ..

Except for the bloom around the very bright stars its a cracker of an image. I have to say that the seeing over us has been horrible, the other night i saw Rigel twinkle from blue to red - overhead. Love the work - impresses me no end - oh goodness i see that figure in a kilt again....

Good to hear that I wasn't the only oen with poor seeing (not good for you, I didn't mean that) as I sadi I was starting to think it was the scope and the fan/heater arangement

..when I saw the colour frames coming down tight-as I though man, where was this when I was taking the OIII - it was like blur city for those subs

..but I breathed a sigh of relief knowing that the scope can see things quite sharp after all...phew
Kilt?...I haven'tworn the kilt for a number of years now...don't have one anymore either

Yeh well she's British so I thought McLaren (although I think they started out in NZ

) more appropriate than calling her a Ferrari

...of course I would like an Officina Stellare scope for sure ...theeen I would call it a Ferrari

zooom
Cheers
